CHAPTER 41: CHAPTER 41: SIMPLY EXISTING IS HOPE!

Without a doubt, this result exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Even Shen Yu was no different.

At this moment, he was continuously pondering in his mind what he could do.

"If only we had used it earlier..." muttered the assistant from the Northern Alliance.

"Shut up, you fool!" The Northern Alliance’s representative immediately reacted, although his face was still pale, he wished he could gag the assistant.

"He is indeed a fool." Olinard shook his head, "The enemy is a living creature with the power of choice, not a naturally occurring disaster. It appeared there to attack humans, and even if we had ample time to move everyone, it would only make the enemy choose another city."

Although unfamiliar with "divination," predicting the future isn’t that complicated.

So, these people actually reacted quickly.

Even if discovered early, it would be hard to do much; the more you do, the more worms would just appear in other cities.

In fact, the brief image just now only showed one worm; no one could be sure if other worms would attack other cities simultaneously.

"Olinard’s right," Qi Shichang also nodded slightly, "The only preparation we can do now is to get ready to attack. When that monster appears in that city, or if we can lock onto it in advance, eliminate it and minimize its destruction to the city."

Yes, at this time, with this result, that’s the only choice we can make.

Death and destruction are already hard to avoid.

What matters is how we can cause fewer deaths.

If we let things happen as the image showed, it wouldn’t take long for the entire city to be reduced to ruins, resulting in millions of deaths.

"I’ll report immediately!" The Northern Alliance’s representative stood up, walked to the side, and directly picked up an emergency communication phone.

He had just been shocked for a moment, but he was not panicked.

Meanwhile, the other few were still watching that tortoise shell.

This was a one-time-use item, but it could be viewed more than once; each time a crack is watched, an image emerges.

Extremely miraculous.

"This prophecy image can lock onto locations, but the distance is too far and the time too short. We can only rely on the Northern Alliance’s." Olinard sighed, "The worst outcome is to use a big one to blow up this monster along with the entire city."

Yes, this is the preparation we can make in three hours and forty minutes.

At least it’s much better than the monster brazenly appearing, swiftly destroying the city, and then leaving arrogantly.

From this perspective,

this tortoise shell really did play a significant role.

Looking at the other two shells, whether it was Qi Shichang or Olinard, their eyes were heavy and fiery.

This item is simply a treasure in these times!

The Association’s power and wonder opened their eyes.

At this moment, the Northern Alliance’s representative, holding the phone, returned, staring intently at that tortoise shell.

"Yes, I saw a landmark building with a sign named Gerard... My God, it’s Jerald City..."

After the Northern Alliance representative hung up the call, he seemed more dazed.

"Jerald City has a population of 6,370,000!"

For the Northern Alliance, such a city is a major city!

With over two hundred years of history.

Yet this city, with its six million inhabitants, will face a catastrophic disaster in just four hours!

Is this the apocalypse?

"Mr. Shen!" The Northern Alliance representative suddenly looked at Shen Yu with imploring eyes, even though he said nothing.

"I’ve already sent messages to both ally members," Shen Yu said, his expression still grave, "Regardless of whether there’s a way, we will go."

"I’ll immediately have people there prepare for your reception!" The Northern Alliance representative’s spirit lifted.

It was as if he suddenly saw hope.

Indeed, if they relied solely on themselves, there seemed nothing they could do but prepare a nuclear weapon.

However, a nuclear weapon that could ensure the destruction of such a large entity would also destroy a significant part of the city!

And they didn’t know where the other worms were.

But if these present beings and the two allies from the Otherworld were willing to participate, there were more possibilities, perhaps even miracles!

At this moment, everyone realized the significance of the Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Mutual Aid Association.

Such an organization, even just its existence, without doing anything yet, can bring hope and courage!

"Do we need to prepare a special plane for you? If it’s a fighter jet, it should make it in time." Qi Shichang immediately suggested.

"No need." Shen Yu shook his head, "I’ve done business with the Northern Alliance, left quite a few warehouses and coordinates there. We can teleport directly, and when the other two members are ready, they will arrive using me as the coordinate."

After he spoke, Shen Yu directly had Ji Mingshu send the location to the Northern Alliance representative.

He immediately went to communicate.

Olinard seemed to think of something and promptly said, "Mr. Shen, all your assets in our West Country will receive the strictest protection. Such foolish offenses as before will never occur again, and, to express our apology, we have prepared a generous compensation for you."

Clearly, they began investigating as soon as they got Shen Yu’s name.

Even those previous rioters were found out.

Sometimes the West Country isn’t inefficient; it depends on whether they want to do it and how much benefit there is.

However, these are minor matters.

Even if the "compensation" from Olinard is several times the assets of the Shen Group, to Shen Yu now, it’s still trivial.

At this moment, Shen Yu was just intensely staring at the tortoise shell, watching repeatedly, while continuously using the Gray Mist to query some information.

For example, how much Gray Mist would be needed to directly eliminate this monster.

The answer was close to five million standard units.

He simply didn’t have that much Gray Mist now.

Even if he did, he wouldn’t necessarily do it that way.

It seemed that saving over six million people with five million standard units of Gray Mist was beneficial?

But clearly, this simple approach would waste Gray Mist greatly and is an incredibly foolish method.

Shen Yu clearly understood that the power to decide the fate of countless people was in his hands now. He could no longer make decisions from the perspective of an "ordinary person," instead needing to view each decision from a higher vantage point.

Being too benevolent in war is not advisable.

Simply put, if sacrificing tens of thousands of people could yield several million Gray Mist in profit, then, looking at the bigger picture, that’s the better decision. Because those millions of Gray Mist could save tens of millions in a greater crisis!

Being a Savior isn’t easy.
